The Central Bank heist · Fortaleza, 2005
📄 Initial report (story and known facts)
📜 Story
Fortaleza, Brazil, Monday, August 8, 2005. The first staff members of the Central Bank branch walk into the vault: there is a hole in the floor. Over the weekend, a gang made off with about 164 million reais, through a tunnel of about 80 meters dug from a front house. Your job: piece together the gang, its cover and its tools. (Convicts go by their real names; the alleged financier, who died without a trial, has a made-up name.)
🎯 Your goal: turn over all 40 cards in the 3 tabs (People, Places, Equipment). A card only turns over if the clues prove it (no guessing allowed), and every card you turn over gives you a new clue.
